US , Iraq close in on a deal that could remove US troops from Iraqi cities by next June. On Thursday US pushed close on deal to " pull out " of Iraqi cities. The exit date for US troops is December 2011. Bush has long resisted a timetable for pulling out , under heavy pressure from a nation distressed by American deaths and the length of the war that started in 2003. But it has " lightened up " in the past few weeks. Obama quoted " wants all Us combat forces out of Iraq within 16 month of taking his office , saying that they are more needed in Afghanistan." McCain quoted " recent security improvements in Iraq show that decisions on the timing of further "pull outs" should be determined by circumstances on the ground rather than prearranged timetables."
My opinion on this subject is that they are finally pulling out of a death count war that has been going on for way to long. My feelings toward this subject are that this is good that they are "pulling out " of this ongoing war that has killed a lot of troops and torn families apart. My two questions about this war is why did we go over their terrorism or oil? Why are we still in war when are economy is going down. My main concern about this war is the life of these troops that have been lost , but also the economy because sense we have been in this war prices on all our stuff that we use everyday from gas to groceries have gone up in cost and that is not helping the nation sense it is going into debt. Finally my idea on what Obama and McCain are saying is that Obama has the best solution to the economies problem to pull us out of Iraq and get us out of debt.
